CARL has been asked what the politics
of The Pilot is and Carl doesn't know.
1t is astonishing how many people apply
to Carl to form opinions for them 1t is
much to the credit of The Pilot that its
politics are unknown to such a man as
Carl who has no politics except in so far
as they can contribute to his own ends.
Until he became possessed of the idea
that he could be elected county Judge his
paper was more republican than demo-
cratic. 1t said more for Carl II. Schmidt
when he was a candidate for county
judge than it has said for the entire de-
mocratic party since the paper was es-
tablished. Indeed that spring it was a
most efficient campaign paper. 1t has
always been Carl's personal organ, always
used to abuse those whom he regarded
with an unfriendly eye and to boom him.
self. For heavens sake, Carl, if any one

A SPECIAL meeting of the oi+y 49,

A SPECIAL meeting of the city council
was held on Tuesday evening to consid-
er water-works matters. The committee
on water-works submitted a plan show
ing where hydrants should be located
and giving the size of pipe to be used.
The plan was adopted by the board after
careful consideration and the clerk in
structed to Immediately advertise for
proposals on the basis presented by the
committee. The system adopted is about
the same as that at Racine,

CARL is very careful in his card to limit
the time during which he will not be a
candidate in 1888. And he is shrewd
enough to perceive that it furthers his
future prospects to have Hudd renom-
mated. Carl is good politician even
though his politics are uncertain except
when Carl is on the ticket.

For years Manitowoc has been poor
place for mechanics and laborers. The
number of unemployed persons who
lounged on Eighth street bridge was
reflection on the city both in matters of
police regulation and as desirable place
for the laborer to make his home. This
year things have changed. Carpenters
have more than they can do and at wages
which make employment profitable.
Day laborers are kept busy and by no
means at starvation rates. The man who
remained idle in Manitowoc this summer
has himself to blame for it.

FARM AND GARDEN.
Roses in the Garden.

Like nearly all other plants, roses de-
light in deep, rich, we'll drained land,
says Peter Henderson in the Ameyican
Agricuttuf'ist. When bed of Hybrid
Perpetual Roses is to be planted, the soil
should be dug to the depth of at least
one foot, and we'll mixed with coating
OF two or three inches Of rotten COW
manure. In the absence Of that, SOW
bone dust on the surface just enough to
cover it, and mix to the depth of foot
with the soil If Hybrid Perpetual Roses
are to be set out in permanent bed,
plant from eighteen to twenty inches
each way if Hybrid Teas plant fourteen
to sixteen inches, and if Monthlies or
Teas about twelve inches The Hybrid
Perpetual and Tea Roses require to be
pruned, like any other hardy shrub Cut
the young wood any time after the leaves
have dropped, back to two or five eyes,
regulating it according to the strength Of
the shoot, the weaker shoots being cut to
two or three eyes, the stronger to four or
five, shaping the bush 50 as to get it in
good form. The Monthly or Tea Roses
require but little pruning, except to thin
out the "blind" or old wood or topping
by pinching out the center of any shoot
that is growing too luxuriantly, so as to
keep the plant in good shape.

Business Principles.

The DRY Goods Chronicle says: A cloth
ing dealer in an interior town had coca
sion to visit the city to purchase goods.
While he was gone young man en-.
tered his store to buy coat. a sales
man waited upon the customer and
showed him coat plainly marked 81.
The customer tried it on and said III
pleasant, confding way: 81 want good
article, and can afford to pay little
more. The salesman showed him many
coats. and, finally, having removed the
tao again offered him the seven-dollar
coat which had fitted him at first, and
said: 'Here is coat, fine article, just
your fit, which l can sell you for S12. !"
The coat was again tried on, the young
man seemed pleased, paid his money,
and went away. On the merchants re-
turn the salesman, with smile Of trl-
umph all over his countenance, rushed
ND to him and boosted of what he had
done. The merchant looked grave. He
only said: "DOes any one know who the
customer was?" A little boy had recog-
-niZed him as a workman in neighbOr-
ing factory and remembered his name.
The merchant sent for the young man,
sola him of his modification, gave him
back So and the privilege of returning
the coat if he chose, and then said to
the salesman: "Now, sir, will pay you
your weeks salary and wish you to go.
If you cheat my customers you have not
principle enough not to cheat me. If |
can't have mypeople sell goods honestly
I will go out of business. Good day,

Some interesting statistics relating to
painters have been lately complied. Ac-
cording to these there are in Paris about
5000 artists of the brush, of whom be-
tween 1000 and 5000 are women, and
300 are foreigners of various nationalitles.
About seventy of these are famous, while
the others are made up of wealthy per-
sons who paint for pleasure, of people
who are specially employed by the gov
eminent, and of the producers of pot
boilers" who paint portraits and land
scapes for cheap picture dealers or for
foreign expectation. The army of paint
ers' models in Paris is a large one, and
increases day by day. The models are
only employed between the ages Is and
10 by painters of the nude, but some of
them find work until they are IS or %,
after which their forms completely lose
the grace and contour of early growth.
The women who 'pose" in studios are
generally paid at the rate of 10f. to 25f.

Wide Tired Wagons.

Mr. w "A. Armstrong reports the FL
mira IN. " Farmers Club as regarding
wide tires for many purposes greatly 81
perlor to the narrow ones in common use.
'Mr. Hoffman changed the wheels Of a
farm wagon from marrow to broad and
found gain, especially in driving over
meadows or soft ground, as for instance
IN drawing out manure In this work he
employed 4 wagon with narrow tires and
found it necessary to seek a new place
after two or three passages, but in alter
mating with two wagons, one having
wide tires, he could continue in the
same track day or two with less harm
than would result from the narrow tires
clone i'll passing two or three times
Similar commentator of wide tires was
given by nearly all the farmers present,
some of them having made practical
trial. Others speaking from observation
extended over considerable time and
many uses. As to the question Of in
creased draft claimed by some persons, il
was not in accord with opinions formed
by these farmers, who reasoned that in
many cases draft is considerably lessened
by wide tires; as, for instance, in draw
any hS@N AOb0S OFCl Hoib SIOuHu, IL llTeS
are narrow wheels cut in, making con
slant obstruction in front, whereas wide
tires go over without sinking, and neaes-
sarily with less draft. 1t was plain that
wide tires for farm wagons were greatly
preferred, and there was even earnest
commentator of proposed law consid-
cred few years ago imposing penalties
upon all users of wagons having narrow
tires on public highways,
